The Kabbalah teaches that the Old Testament’s Song of Songs is an allegorical work that alludes to Adam Kadmon. In Chapter 5, he is described in these words,

His hands are as rods of gold, set with beryl.

With hands of gold, it implies God’s wish for this Adam to a be reflection of Him, powerful yet full of goodness, balanced in thought and action. It is these very attributes of God that numerology traditionally assigns to the number 8. Leadership, stability, power, balance, abundance. This is also probably why so many of these words for the father-figure archetype in Judaism, Christianity and ancient Greek paganism all reduce to the number 8. For instance 17, 71, 26, 62, 44, 35, 53, 80, 89 and 98 and others in this study all reduce to 8.

These 8-class numbers are the ones that show up most predominantly in the names of preeminent deities and words having to do with religion and rank. Also, the relationship between the number 8 in the reduction of words for deities, and 10 for the reduction of words associated with man’s relationship to the divine and seems to be pretty solid as seen above, and in the words below.

Rank in English Reduction = 17 (9+1+5+2)
Rank in English Ordinal = 44 (18+1+14+1)

Religion in English Reduction = 53 (9+5+3+9+7+9+6+5)
Religion in English Ordinal = 89 (18+5+12+9+7+9+15+14)
Religion in English Gematria = 260 (90+5+30+9+7+9+60+50)

Creator in English Ordinal = 80 (3+18+5+1+20+15+18)
Creator in English Reduction = 35 (3+9+5+1+2+6+9)

Creature in English Reduction = 37 (3+9+5+1+2+3+9+5)
Creature in English Ordinal = 91 (3+18+5+1+20+21+18+5)

Status in English Ordinal = 100 (19+20+1+20+21+19)
Status in English Reduction = 10 (1+2+1+2+3+1)

I’ll add here that by using the -s exception rule, status, with two -s’s would also reduce to 28, the number for YHWH and man.

Mortals in English Reduction = 26 (4+6+9+2+1+3+1)
Mortals in the English Ordinal = 98 (13+15+18+20+1+12+19)
Mortals in the English Gematria = 521 (40+60+90+200+1+30+100)

The English gematria of 163 for hands corresponds perfectly with this line that emphasizes Adam Kadmon’s association with gold. Just as he is the first thought of God, gold is the first and finest of all metals. 163 is the 38th prime number, which matches the gematria for gold in both English and Hebrew pronunciation.

Gold in English Ordinal = 38 (7+15+12+4)
Gold in English Reduction = 20 (7+6+3+4)

Balance in English Ordinal = 38 (2+1+12+1+14+3+5)
Balance in English Reduction = 20 (2+1+3+1+5+3+5)

The Hebrew word for gold spelled phonetically in English is “zahab.” It’s gematria matches with this as well.

Zahab in English Ordinal = 38 (26+1+8+1+2)
Zahab in English Reduction = 20 (8+1+8+1+2)

Kabbalah in English Ordinal = 38 (11+1+2+2+1+12+1+8)
Kabbalah in the English Reduction = 20 (2+1+2+2+1+3+1+8)

As is much often the case, prime numbers figure prominently in gematria, as seen here. We’ve already discussed 163 being the 38th prime number. 71, one of the “god numbers” is the 20th prime number. The seventh prime number is 17, another of of the god numbers. As can be seen above, 20 is important in words like gold and Kabbalah and zahab.


20, when it’s spelled out has something to add to this as well.

Twenty in English Reduction = 26 (2+5+5+5+2+7)
Twenty in English Ordinal = 107 (20+23+5+14+20+25)

In numerology, zeroes are not counted.
However, when do they appear, it’s generally interpreted as a multiplication of force in the others numbers of the figure. Once again, the god-numbers 26 and 17 come through in the gematria. Seven shows the same characteristics when compared with Kabbalah

Seven in English Ordinal = 65 (19+5+22+5+14)
Seven in English Reduction = 20 (1+5+4+5+5)
Seven in the English Gematria = 560 (100+5+400+5+50)

Kabbalah in English Gematria = 65 (20+1+2+2+1+30+1+8)
Kabbalah in the English Reduction = 20 (2+1+2+2+1+3+1+8)

Zahab in Hebrew letters is זָהָב. It’s Hebrew gematria is 14 which echoes the 1-4 pattern of the human hand discussed earlier.

זָהָב in Hebrew Gematria =14 (7+5+2)
זָהָב in Hebrew Reduction = 14 (7+5+2)

The precious stones referred to as beryl in the poem, would include gems like sapphire, emeralds and aquamarine. Beryl was also used for the gems that were on the breastplate of the Hebrew high priest. Beryl figures prominently in the vision of Ezekiel where the prophet compares the glory of God to the radiance of sapphire. The gematria of beryl ties back into the patterns we were following earlier, with 26 and 62.

Beryl in English Reduction = 26 (2+5+9+7+3)
Beryl in English Ordinal = 62 (2+5+18+25+12)

One can see how the 26|62 and 17|71 pattern of reflection and inversion is also strongly present in the following decoding. This is very often the case with what Tsarion refers to as “talismanic words.
